Best 90s Sports Cars by Price: What Each Costs in 2026

A clean 90s sports car costs anywhere from $11,000 for a Miata to more than $300,000 for a 993 Turbo. The decade gave us twin turbos, pop-up headlights, the last air-cooled 911 and the first cars that still feel modern on the road, and every one of them is now past 25 years old.

Below are 20 of the best 90s sports cars grouped by what they cost in the US today, from affordable 90s sports cars you can drive every weekend to the ones that go straight into a collection.

90s Sports Car Prices at a Glance (2026)

Market values are CLASSIC.com benchmarks and Hagerty figures as of September 2026, rounded. Sales mentioned below are US auction results.

Affordable 90s Sports Cars: Under $20,000

1. Mazda Miata (NA, 1990 to 1997)

Pop-up headlights, rear-wheel drive and about 2,200 pounds. The benchmark sits near $12,000, and it remains the easiest way to own a 90s sports car and drive it every weekend.

2. Porsche Boxster S (986)

The Boxster launched in 1997 and saved Porsche. The S arrived for 2000 with more power and a six-speed. Manual S cars benchmark near $17,000, and a 2002 S with 68,000 miles sold for $26,000 in September. It's the cheapest mid-engine Porsche you can buy.

3. Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo (1991 to 1996)

The Dodge twin of the 3000GT VR-4, with the same all-wheel drive and twin-turbo V6. It benchmarks near $17,500, less than its Mitsubishi sibling, and a 12,000-mile 1991 sold for $26,700 in April.

90s Sports Cars from $20,000 to $50,000

4. Toyota MR2 Turbo (SW20, 1991 to 1995)

Mid-engine, turbocharged and famous for snap oversteer in the wrong hands. US Turbos benchmark near $23,000, and a 43,000-mile 1993 sold for $28,000 in September.

5. Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 (1991 to 1999)

Twin turbos, all-wheel drive, four-wheel steering and active aero in the early cars. Coupes benchmark near $25,000, and a 20,000-mile 1995 sold for $37,000 in July.

6. Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo (Z32, 1990 to 1996)

A 300 hp twin-turbo V6 and four-wheel steering in a body that still looks good. The benchmark is near $28,000, and a 28,000-mile 1995 five-speed sold for $43,000 in September.

7. BMW M3 (E36, 1995 to 1999)

The US got a 240 hp version of the European car and it still became the sports sedan benchmark. Manual coupes sit near $29,000. The 1995 Lightweight is the outlier, with one selling for $249,500 in December 2025.

8. Honda S2000 (AP1, 2000 model year)

Built from mid-1999, with a 9,000 rpm redline and a six-speed. 2000 model year cars benchmark near $30,000, and low-mile examples go much higher: a 9,000-mile car sold for $45,000 in September.

9. Porsche 968 (1992 to 1995)

The last front-engine four-cylinder Porsche, with 240 PS from 3.0 liters. Manual coupes benchmark near $32,000, and a 1993 sold for $69,000 in February.

10. Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 (C4, 1990 to 1995)

The Lotus-designed LT5 V8 made 375 hp, then 405 from 1993. Values run from about $24,000 to $48,000, a bargain for what was once called the King of the Hill.

11. Mazda RX-7 (FD, 1993 to 1995)

A sequential twin-turbo rotary and one of the best-looking shapes of the decade. US cars benchmark near $41,000, and a 39,000-mile car sold for $60,000 in August. Read our Mazda RX-7 FD3S buying guide.

12. BMW M Coupe (1999 to 2002)

The "clown shoe". The M Coupe benchmarks near $42,000, and a 2001 with 81,000 miles sold for $45,000 in August. Late 2001 and 2002 cars got the S54 engine from the E46 M3.

13. Acura Integra Type R (1997 to 2001)

The B18C revs past 8,000 rpm and the chassis is still a reference for front-wheel drive. Unmodified cars are the challenge. Recent US sales include a 1997 at $43,500 and a 2001 at $42,000.

90s Sports Cars from $50,000 to $100,000

An aluminum body, a mid-mounted VTEC V6 and development input from Ayrton Senna. Early coupes benchmark near $84,000, and a 13,000-mile 1991 sold for $135,500 in August.

17. Toyota Supra Turbo (Mk IV, 1993 to 1998)

The 2JZ-GTE made 320 hp in US spec and handles far more. US Turbos benchmark between $97,000 and $107,000. See our Toyota Supra Mk IV buying guide.

18. Porsche 911 Carrera (993, 1995 to 1998)

The last air-cooled 911. A manual Carrera coupe benchmarks near $99,000, and a Carrera 4S near $168,000.

90s Sports Cars over $100,000

19. Ferrari F355 (1995 to 1999)

A 3.5-liter V8 with five valves per cylinder, 375 hp and a gated six-speed. Manual cars benchmark between $137,000 and $183,000, and a 1997 Spider manual sold for $280,000 in September. For the look at a lower price, see the poor man's Ferrari from the 1990s.

20. Porsche 911 Turbo (993, 1996 to 1997 in the US)

The first 911 Turbo with twin turbos and all-wheel drive. It benchmarks near $257,000. A 1996 with 31,000 miles sold for $306,000 on Bring a Trailer in September, and a 73,000-mile 1997 brought $220,000 at Mecum the same month.

Buying, Exporting or Importing 1990s Sports Cars

Mileage and originality drive price more than anything else in this market. A modified car often sells below the benchmark, and a low-mile original can bring double. Budget for a pre-purchase inspection by a specialist in the make.

For buyers outside the US, the rules depend on age. In Germany, a car must be 30 years old for an H-plate, which in 2026 means 1996 and earlier builds, so an early NSX or 300ZX qualifies and an S2000 doesn't yet. Our 1990s German performance cars guide covers the European side. Buyers in the US looking at Japanese-market versions of these cars can import anything built on or before September 2001 under the 25-year rule; see our guide to the best 90s JDM cars.
